Aptimust Syrup is a prescription medication primarily used to stimulate appetite and manage conditions where increased food intake is needed. It can be taken with or without food, depending on your doctor's advice. The dosage and duration of treatment vary based on the patient's medical condition, age, response to the treatment, and overall health profile. It is important to follow your healthcare provider's instructions carefully and not discontinue the medicine prematurely, even if your symptoms improve, unless advised by the doctor.
The effectiveness of Aptimust Syrup may be influenced by other medications you are currently taking. Therefore, it is essential to inform your doctor about all prescription drugs, over-the-counter medicines, herbal products, or supplements you may be using. Some drugs can interact with the active ingredients in Aptimust Syrup, either reducing its effectiveness or increasing the risk of side effects.
Like most medications, Aptimust Syrup may cause side effects, although not everyone experiences them. Common side effects include constipation, dry mouth, and blurred vision. These effects are typically mild and temporary, resolving on their own as your body adjusts to the medication. However, if any of these symptoms persist or become bothersome, it is important to consult your doctor without delay.
Some patients may also experience drowsiness or dizziness after taking this syrup. It is advised to avoid activities that require full attention, such as driving, operating machinery, or performing tasks that require mental alertness, until you are sure of how the medication affects you. Additionally, consumption of alcohol should be avoided during the course of this treatment, as it can enhance sedative effects and may increase the risk of side effects such as excessive sleepiness or confusion.

Aptimust Syrup is a combination of three medicines: Cyproheptadine, tricholine citrate and sorbitol, which revives appetite. Cyproheptadine is an appetite-stimulant. It works by reducing the effect of a chemical messenger (serotonin) in the hypothalamus, a part of the brain which regulates appetite. Tricholine citrate is a bile acid binding agent which removes bile acids from the body. The liver then produces more bile acids using cholesterol, as a result of which cholesterol level is lowered. Sorbitol acts as a syrup base and also as an osmotic laxative to relieve constipation.
